them fell, and striking his nose on the edge
of the truck, cut his lip open and broke off
some OF his teeth. got out in front with great
effort and tried to help the driver, who was
drunk, too drunk to do anything at all but

His bundle of umbrella fragments is always
large and apparently of no value whatever.
Sometimes you suspect him of magnificent
enterprises in the line of dark villainy; he
seems so far above his merchandise intellect
ually. But even in that you will be disap-
pointed. He is as destitute Of wicked as
of commendable brilliance Umbrellas, after
all, are his level. How he can extract enough
money out of them to keep his unambitious
soul in his indolent body is something no other
man can find out.
You will not see him on Fifth avenue. The
residents of that aristocratic street do not
have their umbrellas mended. He will flash
past you on Fourteenth street, and OCCASION
ally ON Twenty-third You never see him at
work: and for the life of IN you cant OF help
but wonder now ne suDslSUS Oh uinDreli.
sucks.
Down town, on Vesey and Greenwich
streets and lower Broadway you will see him
in the summer sitting in shady places, not
working, but dreaming. Where or when he
works can never say, not having seen him
engaged at his extraordinary art In the
country in silent, sleepy villages, he would
be sure of 50 of SO worth of work during a
season; but here, where nobody takes the
how he and the wolf manage to keep away
from each other.
Was he always an umbrella man? Well,
he was born "handy" with tools-had fac
ulty for tiGkering, and thinkers are altogether
too versatile to reach great heights in any
one direction. He was born "shiftless," too;
would rather eat crust at his own time and
place than fare sumptuously every day and
pay for the same in steady toll.
He is nomadic i'll his instincts. The
tastes of the Gypsy are in him.
He drifts outside of the city sometimes
and bring back the murmurs of brooks and
the signing of the trees to bless the hours when
he rests idly in some dirty bit of street shade.
Down about the wharfs the umbrella man
wanders. The rude life of the waters edge
has a charm for him. The Battery park sees
good deal of him when the sun is warm on
the land and the air comes cool and sweet
over the bay. He carries some pleasant pict-
ures of boyhood with him, too. Sometimes
he has been great traveller, rather a great
drifter-has drifted half or clear around the
world and back again. While his physical
eyes are on his dismantled umbrellas his inner
eyes are roaming the earth, peering into odd
corners which he has seen, been pleased with
and finds a joy in remembering.
And so his life goes on-most of it passed
where high respectability cannot even look
over the fence. He dies, of course, sometimes;
but another like him takes his place, and the
great procession moves on.

THE LIVER

Sscretes the bile and acts like a filter to
cleanse impurities of the blood. By ir-
regularity in its action or suspensions
of its functions, the bile poisons the blood,
causing jaundice, saLIow complexion, weak
eyes, bilious diamhoa, a Ianguid, weary
feeling, end many other distressing symp-
toms generally termed liver troubles. These
are relieved at once by the use of BULLS
SARSAPARNLA the great blood resident.
DIR. JOHN BULL have been for a number of
years severely afflicted with mercurial hepdache
and dull, heavy pain in my liver. Three titles
of BULLS SARsAPARILLA gave me more relief
than all the others combined.

and think lathe best article OF Sarsaparlla in use.

PLEURo-PR EUMONIA.
New Rules and Regulations by the Com
missioner of Agriculture.


WASHINGTON, Arril 16.- The commissioner of
Agriculture has issued new set of rules govern
ing operations of the department and the sup
pression and extrpation OF pleuTo- pnenmonia aud
other infectious diseases. The chief OF the
bureau of animal industry is requested to send in
speCtOrs TO points where he has reason to believe
any contagious disease OF cattle exists. The in
spectOr IL required, In case he finds that disease
actually exists, to impose temporary quarantine,
notifying owners and warning them not TO re-
move qnarantined animals under penalties i'm
posed by congress. The chief of the bureau of
animal industry Is required TO report TO the com
that contagious disease exists in the
locality, and that there Is danger OF 1t spread
Ing to other states and territories Whereupon the
commissioner will quarantine that locality, cause
diseased animals to be slaughtered and infected
premises TO be disiniected. Should any animals
be permitted to 90 into such district until disinfec
ton is officially declared complete, second disin-
lection will be ordered at the expense of the owner
All quarandned animals will be regarded as af-
fected with contagious diseases, and any person
moving them from the infected district will be
prosecuted. The chief of the bureau may cause eX
posed animals to be slaughtered wherever 1t is
deemed necessary to prevent the spread OF disorder
from one state or territory to another. Provision
Is made for the appraisal OF aud payment for the
Strengthening of animals.
Whenever II il deemed necessary by the chief of
the bureau to supervise and Inspect any lines of
transportation doing business in more than one
state and boats, cars and stock yards in cOnnec-
ton Herewith, he Is required to designate suitable
inspectors, and make the necessary regulations
for quarantine, and the disinfectOn of such boats,
cars and stock yards a. are SUSPECTED OF being al
fected with disease.
Whenever any inspector Is prevented or OBJ
structed, or nterfered with in the performance of
his duty, he Is required to call upon the police au
thorties for aid and protection, and If
this 10 denied he is then TO
cali on the United States marshal
for force, and to file information with the district
attorney. Should 1t be found impossible to en-
force these rules In any state, the commissioner,
II he thinks the exigency requires It, will declare
the state In quarantine, and any person removing
animals therefrOm, exc pit upon certificate of an
inspector of the bureau win be prosecuted All
previous rules and regu lations are revoked.
The circular bearing this code of rules will con-
tain, also, copy of the acts of congress upon |
which they are based.

ulsguseu, 100. IL wears an air OF submission
to the inevitable that moves one like
French drama. A degraded splendor hangs
about him. lnstinctively one places him
among the pathetic pictures of memory.
Very often he has tall and princely figure,
as well as a face that would not put sena-
torial halls to shame.
Yet the umbrella member is a disappoint-
ment when you talk with him. The hidden
greatness you accredit him with is not in
him. His unshaven, picturesquely handsome
face has no brains behind it. He was born to
look what is not. Art has nothing to do with
it. either. Nature attends to all of it. She
had her eye on his uses to artists when she
made him.

ANEW POLITICAL FORCE.
Views of the New Y ork World on the La
Dor Party.


New YORK, April 16.--The World this morning
says the heavy labor vote cast at the local cleo
lions In New Jersey, this week, continues to dem
onsrate that a new force has appeared in Ameri-
politics. which the leaders of the old org anza-
tons cannot ignore, and which is bound to dis
turb their calculations. IL a labor candidate for
the presidency should be in the field next year, and
be supported by voters in that state who are now
in favor of separate party action, New Jersey
would probably be lost TO the democrats.
Whether the labor movement will prove to be
a dsintegrating force, depends upon the wisdom
with which It is directed, and upon what the dem
ocratc party shall do between now and next year.
The weakness of the labor party, as a permanent
and growing power, is that il is animated by com
mon sentiment, but is not united in common
purpose or based uDon fixed principles. 1t might
defeat the democrats, but it has settled
policy of its own. If the GEM
ucratic administration should begin in
earnest to meet the ends for which II was elected,
and, by AN aggressive reform policy and display of
genuine sympathy with the just and reasonable
demands of the masses, prove it's party to he the
friend of PLATA people, and the champion of the
poor, the third party demonstration would shrink
| TO small proportions b. another year. But unless
something of this kind shall be done there is
danger ahead for the democratic party.

THE N EW LAW.
Practical Effects of the Interstate Com
merce Act on Commerce.


merce Act on Commerce.
New YORK, April l6.--The Tribune says en-
quirles made by Bradatreet to the effect of the
interstate commerce law make favorable returns,
as rule. Cotton piece goods of new classifca-
ton, under the law, come In for an advance of
80 per cent Leading grocery staples are effected
yariously, the principal change being an advance
In sugar rates from Is to p cents per one hum
bred pounds, from New York to hcagO
Hardware and cutlery suffer an advance
of cents, while heavy forms
of iron ore are Ave to ten cents lower, while the
rate on pig iron Is apparently left unchanged
There is actually an increased rate, because the
old tariff was not maintained.
good illustration of a nominal decline in rates
under the new law, accompanying a heavy actual
increase, may be found in the charges on lumber
from Buffalo to New York city. Prior to April
the rate seventeen cents and the rate at pres
ent is fourteen cents. The point 10 the com
plants from lumber shippers Is found in the fact
that the rate was cut January 4 to April to five
cents, Against this figure thirteen cents is heavy
advance.
Changes in rates on leading art
icles shipped from Philadelphia to
interior points do not differ materially
from those on New York west bound shipments.
AS regards Boston, the principal effect of the
law ia the abOlit IN of lower rates on export grain
allowed to that port, and the point will probably be
laid before the commission
The Pacific roads have Ieceeded from extreme
grounds which they took at the outset, but even
their rates on wool from San Francisco to Boston
are 80 high as to prevent land shipments.
At Chicago the most notable effect was the fall
ing of in east bound shipments from 900 week
before last to 10000 tons last week.
